Wall-to-wall bullshit

I am on what is known as a wall-to-wall project: the hours are high, seven days a week. At first they were very cagey about letting us know how long this would last, but they finally relented and told us it would end in another week (making it a two-week project). Anytime they don't want to answer the "how long?" question, you're in trouble. Also, let's face it: if you have a project with a high pay rate and high hours (and this one has both), you know it can't last long, because God hates contract attorneys.

About Me

Providing insight with F-bombs, Raised by Wolves is a contract attorney in Washington, D.C. This was not always so. However, RBW plans to remain anonymous in the interests of remaining a contract attorney in Washington, as that is how RBW pays the rent these days. You can reach me at raised.by.a.wolf@gmail.com.
